I had asked how many pieces in my stash, well this was piece #4. I am working on #3, it is a new Simplicity blouse pattern. My goal is to have the remaining pieces sewn up before I meet Gwen in May for fabric shopping.

Another Cynthia Rowley Jacket
I liked the first Simplicity 2443 so much, I had to make another one. I left off the ties and I think I will get buttons. This jacket also needs the d-rings for the sleeves, I only had gold ones and I want silver ones for this jacket. The fabric is a cotton-lycra with some texture from my stash, purchased last year.

Another great jacket!
ReplyDeleteThe textured fabric works great with this jacket! I love both of your versions.
ReplyDeleteCute jacket. You will have fun shopping for more fabric! No guilt :)
ReplyDeleteAnother cute jacket, Lori. I like how you only used the bottom pockets on this version. I still haven't made mine. :) But it's now winter and cold so it will have to wait until spring.
ReplyDeleteLove both of your jackets!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a nice jacket. I really like the textured fabric.
ReplyDeleteI love that jackret. It will be a terrific piece all summer long. You can wear it with jeans, or a skirt, or over a dress as well.
ReplyDeleteOh gosh, I just knew you were going to say you pintucked that fabric! That is one great jacket! I seriously need this pattern.
ReplyDeleteI love this version also. Nice use of a nicely textured fabric.
ReplyDeleteI really like this white version, and it will be so versatile for wearing this summer. I have way too many pieces in my stash to count, but I have been trying to sew it down some!
ReplyDeleteI really like this jacket, but wonder it if would work with buttons rather than the tie closure. I nearly bought the pattern today, but hesitated because of this.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous jacket - it looks very expensive!! This is such a great pattern and your version, without the ties, and in that beautiful fabric, is a real winner.
ReplyDeleteI would not have thought to use that type of fabric! The jacket is very unique and stands out. I love it.
ReplyDeleteOh Lori, that is sooooo beautiful! Maybe that should be my next project. I plan to clean my sewing room today and then I can start something new. A job well done for sure! :-)
ReplyDeleteIt's a cute jacket! Do you know what type of buttons you want to get for it?
ReplyDeleteVery cute spring/summer jacket! The fabric is very interesting as well.
ReplyDeleteIt's really pretty and crisp looking. Love the fabric.
ReplyDeleteVERY cute!
ReplyDeleteLove it! Did you see the white piqué version I made of this jacket? Some people told Gigi they think this pattern is ugly and outdated, but I totally disagree.
ReplyDeleteI love this version almost more than the original pattern! Great job!
ReplyDeleteThat jacket is so cute...I love it!
